We live in various seasons. Seasons describe segments of time, phases of life, and can be good and bad. When the season is bad, we may need to put out the fake flowers to remind ourselves of the good. We hold on to the memories so that we can smile. We can make the decision of what and how things are displayed.
We live through the seasons. We live through the good and the bad.
Until the season changes, here are some fake flowers for the current season, as we need to remember the good.
In the meantime.
All gallery facilities are free and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday 11AM – 5PM.
